- MJX X600 6-axis Gyro Hexacopter - $65.88
- Hubsan X4 Quadcopter - $41.90
- Quadrone Pro Camera Quadcopter - $119.99
- JJRC H16 Tarantula X6 Drone - $67.89
- MJX X600 2.4G RC Hexa Copter - $79.99
Well, it isn't a SKEYE Embryo as I predicted when we saw the drone-baby factory's Pico, but I think the 6-propellered SKEYE mutant that is Hexa reflects a similar sort of tinkering with the drone genetic code.
Like doping and large breasts, Hexa's 2 additional propellers give it an unfair advantage in life. That's good news for you though, because it means the copter comes with superior flight control, can move in every direction, and has a wide repertoire of stunts it can pull out to dazzle Grandma on Christmas morning.
Like all SKEYE drones, Hexa takes off smooth and steady when you toss it in the air. It has as 164' flight range and, again thanks to its extra blades and 6-axis flight control system, should be much easier for new pilots to maneuver and advance from beginner to pro during use.
Hexa is palm-sized at 5.1" long x 5.1" wide x 1.2" high and weight 1.06 ounces. It includes a 2.4GHz, 4-channel remote. Charge time is 30 minutes for every 7 to 8 minutes of flight time.
